Hi
as I didn't want to hi-jack the last post on new clothes on sale on ebay, I did want to demonstrate my idea for consideration, and so have put my money where my mouth is
I took a foamed neoprene ski mask, and cut it up to fit over Pleos back, and back sensors where he is likely to be rubbed
I have yet too switch Goofy on to see how he moves with it in place, and whether the sensors do still work or not
It will also need some tinkering / trimming around the arms / legs where it is tight, and to allow better freedom of movement
However I think initially it opens up a good material, with interesting colours (I know I have used black) and patterns for an interesting looking Pleo
This is the mask:
This is the rear of the mask
This is it in half
And then cut and sewn
Shown the right way around
And Tad Dah ! - Goofy wears his new jacket
And it only took about 30 minutes to make, as Stated I will trim, and tighten to look better, and will put the final picture up when complete, I hope this inspires some of you to do the same - remember I am a bloke - so if I can do it - so can you!
Possibly looking at the final shape of the jacket - a face mask / bandana may even do the job with no stitching - just cutting!
Please let me know your thoughts, thank you
Stephen
